Light Bulbs under the Mirrors
I just finsihed changing all of my exterior lights to LED or HID. This includes the bulbs under the doors which I believe are called puddle lights. There are 2 small bulbs that shine down from the underneath the mirrors and they are driving me nuts.....only thing not LED. Anyone know what the lights are and how to change to LED? Looking for how to take the mirror apart, what type bulb it is, and where to buy them. Everything else looks perfect.
Side note: Just had the calipers powder coated red.....very cool indeed

Bulbs
They are Festoon bulbs.
1 pair Xenon White D36mm#04
I would not recommend the aholes I purchased from. I finally got it correct but they were freakin terrible to deal with. It is very similar if not identical to the lights in the license plate, but they do not need the capacitor to work without errors.....no connection to computer. They look amazing. I will take a picture at night.

Purchased them on EBAY and had them applied! They are made of material that withstands heat, etc. We will see if it lasts for years, but they were not that expensive if they dont.

How did you like the LED lights? I was thinking it would update the car some but was afraid it would look to ricey if you know what I mean. I was looking for all of the interior lights, license plate, trunk and puddle lights.

I went pure outside lights....all new cars have them and it definitely looks awesome. I am not changing any of the interior lights.........not a fan. I even switched to the 6000K HID main lights. They look awesome. Purchased the HID kit for the fogs....still need to get that done.
